A seated man in a red-orange turban and matching saffron-red robes sits cross-legged on a golden Nandi bull sculpture, smiling and gesturing with one open hand. He wears a white and pink flower garland, a dark rudraksha mala, and ceremonial gold necklaces and bangles, with a tiger-striped cloth draped beneath him. Behind him stands a large grey stone sculpture of a deity with raised hands and a lit backdrop. A golden trident leans at the left edge. The appearance matches the Swamiji (probable) cues of long dreadlocked hair under a turban, saffron clothing, rudraksha and gold ornaments, and he is physically present on stage.
